The Amazon Sword plant is a naturally beautiful background plant that can grow quite tall and is great for almost all planted tanks, especially those with a jungle and rainforest river theme. They can also be used as midground plants in large aquarium tanks.

Most Amazon Sword plants supplied commercially are emersed grown outdoor. When they are put into an aquarium, they can encounter melting issues (such as the plant dropping off their emersed leaves) as they transition to aquarium conditions. The decay elevates dissolved organics levels in an aquarium which can contribute to algae issues. Besides that, outdoor emersed grown stock are usually exposed to outdoor pests.  

This plant offered by Aquarzon is 100% aquarium submersed grown indoor and is very clean, free from weeds and outdoor pests. It is not tissue culture or emersed grown stock which can suffer transitional melting issues when planted in an aquarium. Our indoor submersed grown stock is in very healthy condition and ready to be planted straight in an aquarium.
